Cookies and Cream Cheesecake Recipe.

Ingredients:

For the crust:

2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
1/4 cup melted butter

For the cookies and cream cheesecake filling:

3 cups cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 large eggs
15 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed (such as Oreo cookies)

For the cookie crumble topping:

10 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed (such as Oreo cookies)
For garnish (optional):

Whipped cream
Additional crushed cookies

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
In a bowl, combine chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased springform pan to form the crust.
In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Gently fold in the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies into the cream cheese mixture.
Pour the cookies and cream-flavored cream cheese mixture over the crust in the springform pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake for 55-60 minutes until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the pan, slice, and serve.
Before serving, sprinkle the cookie crumble topping over the sliced cheesecake.
Optional: Add a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with additional crushed cookies for garnish.
